Colorectal surgery, with a calmer and gentler recovery.
Over twenty years of experience, clear answers, and minimally invasive surgery planned around how you actually heal, whether the patient is you or an elderly parent.
The honest, unhurried care you were hoping to find.
Recovery is planned, not left to chance
Minimally invasive techniques and a clear recovery plan are chosen for your situation, so going home is calmer and getting back to normal life is the goal from day one.
Nothing to be embarrassed about
Colorectal problems are far more common than most people think. You will be met without judgement, in a private and respectful setting, and given time to ask anything.
A surgeon who understands older patients
For an elderly parent, the right approach is not the same as for a forty year old. Dr Lee built dedicated geriatric surgical care, including prehabilitation and family-centred decisions.
The conditions and procedures Dr Lee treats most often.
He built geriatric surgical care, not just practises it.
As the former Surgical Lead for Geriatric Surgery at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, Dr Lee developed prehabilitation programmes, introduced muscle-strength screening, and changed how teams talk with families when an older patient needs surgery.
For families choosing a surgeon for a parent, that experience is the difference between a procedure and a recovery.
“These are conditions people suffer with in silence for years. The first job is to make it easy to ask for help.”
Dr Daniel Lee is a senior colorectal and general surgeon who has spent his career making difficult conversations easier and recovery gentler, across both public hospital leadership and private practice.
